What happens if a man takes birth control?
an actual good question now i wanna know
>>83477878I can't recall exactly why, but I've heard of steroid and SARM users taking birth control to balance out their hormones while on cycle.
>>83477878OpenEvidence: "If a man takes birth control pills, he would experience hormonal effects from the exogenous estrogen and progestin, including suppression of testosterone production, potential feminizing effects, and possible adverse reactions similar to those seen in women, though the clinical significance and specific manifestations in men are not well-studied in the medical literature.The hormonal mechanisms would be similar to those in women. Combined oral contraceptives suppress the hypothalamic-pituitary axis, decreasing gonadotropin (LH and FSH) release.Obstetrics & Gynecology[1] In men, this would suppress endogenous testosterone production by the testes. The estrogen component would increase sex hormone-binding globulin, further reducing free testosterone levels.JAMA[2]Potential effects would likely include:Feminizing changes: breast tissue development (gynecomastia), redistribution of body fat, and reduced body/facial hair growth due to decreased androgens and increased estrogenSexual dysfunction: decreased libido and erectile dysfunction from suppressed testosteroneTesticular effects: reduced testicular size and impaired spermatogenesis from gonadotropin suppressionMen would also be at risk for the same adverse effects documented in women, including increased risk of venous thromboembolism (approximately 7-10 events per 10,000 person-years), though the baseline risk profile differs between sexes.JAMA[2] Other potential adverse effects include nausea, mood changes, weight changes, and the rare but serious cardiovascular complications associated with estrogen-containing contraceptives.FDA + 1[3-4]"
>>83477878Apparently men in nursing homes are fed birth control because their true rape nature comes out in dementia
>>83477878Well, women take it to stop themselves from getting pregnant. If a man takes it then he'll start getting pregnant because of the reverse effect it has.
>>83477878they're mostly just estrogen aka you become a tranny
>>83477878He won't get pregnant.
>>83477878Do you not use fucking Google or Bing or whatever else? Why make a thread like this? Holy shit
